Coinciding the 2nd day of the 1st year of Royal prince Jigme Namgyel Wangchuk #Gyelsey, I am pleased to say hello to my blogger friends there? Have you been doing good? I am doing fine.
Well, about today's post, i just wanted to share the brief highlights of day-before today. I am certain that you have done lots of precious things last day in the name of our adorable Gyelsey. Have you? Yeah...I can feel you nodding. Some of you must have attended to some of the grant events dedicated to the birthday celebration of the Royal little Highness.
I am at Mongar. Our big event for the day was planned at Gyelposhing, at the Gyeltshab Office. Six Eastern Dzongkhags (Mongar, Lhuentse, Trashigang, Trashiyangtse, Pemagatshel and Samdrup-jongkhar) have dedicated in the same event ground.
One of my office friend was there for the ground preparation for the last six days. And today when he returned back to the office, he was fully contended but with some alteration in his skin color. He has got darker. I and my senior staff mocked him saying, his Girlfriend may leave him because he has become darker...LOL. He said he was in the sun doing the landscaping for the whole six days.
I was excited to attend that big event. But what a big bad luck! My head was into a huge numb. I couldn't get up early and missed the vehicle that was planned at 6:30 am. My neighbor woke me up but my head was still in deep pain.
When i finally woke up, it was already 10:30 am. My head was bit fine. I was late by a solid two hours. The program at the event ground was to start at 9:00 am. And the event ground is at 25 km away from my stay? What the hell? I don't have a car. Getting taxi is a rare occasion.
So, what now? Alright. I just killed my heart to attend the event. I offered my little prayers at home in the name of the 'Person of the day'; in the name of the #Gyelsey; the little Royal highness who is exactly turning a year old on the day.
I was happy again. I did the home chores. I knitted a sweater for my little sister for few hours. In the afternoon, i went into the woods as i always love walking in the woods and embracing with various plants. The passage to the woods had the beautiful hundreds of prayer flags and the raw-stone stupa.
And in the woods, what was different this time and what amazed me more was the 'Full Bloom Rhododendrons." Rhododendro is a hard-wood. Maybe, the tree specialists will many more to say about Rhododendron. I just know that it is hard-wood.
With the dark red, some pink and a bell-like flowers, Rhododendron is the most beautiful wild flower. Unlike other flowers which blooms in the rain and spring, Rhododendron blooms in dry and winter.
At the touch of the flowers, I suddenly remembered one of my childhood friend who said 'When you chew the flower, it will turn your tongue to a purple color.'
I chewed few petals. And yes, it was giving a purple color to my tongue. It tasted little sweet, little sour and little bitter. It is odorless. I am certain that the flower carries some herbal (medicinal) properties.
And about me, I am such a girl who always look to put any type of flowers in my hair. The Rhododendrons was so available that i tied my hair with some. It was pretty good. I loved that feeling of loving that moment.
And yes, in the meantime, i said this in my mind. I said 'Thank you God for giving me birth in harmonious Bhutan under the wise leadership of our Monarchs.' I prayed for the prosperity of our little adorable Gyelsey.
In the night, i have insta-posted some of the pictures in my instagram account. I captioned it as " When you are into the woods and that you can not only embrace but also tie your hair with the blooms. The feeling is amazing. Dedicated to the first birthday of the Royal Highness #Gyelsey#."
And the day has ended blissfully on the first year birthday of the Royal Prince: the heart, the gem, the pearl of the Nation!
Do share your moments on Gyelsey's birthday in the comment down to pay your tribute.
Thanking you.

The big day and the wonderful moment amidst beautiful flowers and woods. Such a breathtaking blog in celebration of HRH Gyalsey's birthday and the rejoice of blogging journey.
ReplyDeleteSimtokha Dzong was beautifully adorned following the rules of culture and tradition. That gave a quick hint of the day's importance to the passers by though it haven't broadcasted in BBS.
Came the morning of Big Day, with a wish for Gyalsey's clear glimpse, yet to our dismay the police personals barred us from getting close to the Dzong. Shooing us away, atleast few miles from the Dzong. Anyways, the genuine prayers for the Gyalsey made me reassure that no matter what we shall be blessed under the reign of Gyalsey.
